@mdphd2050 poppies need cold weather to sprout. In Canada we sow in early spring and harvest in mid summer.
I THINK they sow in december and havrest in april-may

What time of year (month) do they plant the poppies? Additionally, what time of year do they harvest the opium and what is the daily average temperature? I have read that poppies are generally a cool weather crop, but I'm sure June in this part of the world is quite hot.

yeah, hold the fuckin paper in the way when you try to show us the flower....

the flower does not develop from the "crown". the petals of the flower grow from the "ring" under the latter pod. the flower blooms 24-48hrs then the small pod inside grows for about two weeks. after two weeks of maturing the pod is ready for opium-harvest. for seed-harvest the plant and pod has to be dry, which takes another month.
who are you that you were allowed safely to travel here, what are your ties to these people? are you arab? where did u learn to speak arabic? you look jewish, do they hate jews there?

Generally, anti-semitism is not as prevalent as found in Arab countries. Afghans don't speak Arabic, they speak a variety of languages, but mostly Dari and Pashtu. Nothern Afghanistan is generally safe for travelers.
